“Michelle was prompt in responding, friendly and outgoing with our pups, and asked great questions about them! We re-booked her promptly and highly suggest her services if you're in the greater SE-WI area.”

About: Have administered specialized medicine to senior animals for ongoing diseases such as kidney disease and hyperthyroidism. Was very diligent nursing my senior kitty before he passed. I work and go to school so my schedule varies but I always have some nights and mornings free each week that I would love to use on animals. Constant Care policy: if you are needing constant care that would require me to not leave for more than 4 hours, please book atleast 2 weeks ahead of whatever dates you need so I can accommodate that. I would also need to adjust my rate to reflect the lost income. I understand and respect animals boundaries and try my best not to encroach them. I've also mastered the "foot as barrier" approach when opening doors.
About: Hello! My name is Elena, and I specialize in caring for dogs of all backgrounds—including rescues, seniors, and pets with unique needs. As the owner of three rescue dogs myself, I understand that every pup has their own personality, history, and comfort level. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with: Recognizing stress, fear, and anxiety cues Supporting dogs with behavioral quirks or anxieties Providing consistent routines, medication if needed, and patient care When I care for your pet, I focus on making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. You can expect timely communication, photo updates, and a sitter who truly respects the bond you share with your furry family member. Your pets will be cared for as if they were my own—because I know how much trust it takes to leave them with someone new. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, allowing me to provide consistent and reliable care for your furry friend. As a nursing student, I have honed my skills in time management, responsibility, and compassionate care, which seamlessly translate into my pet care services. Ensuring the safety, trust, and well-being of pets is paramount. In my home, I maintain a pet-proofed environment with secure locks and designated safe zones, ensuring cleanliness and comfort with regular cleaning and a consistent schedule of feeding, walks, and enrichment activities. Health monitoring is a priority, with regular checks for signs of illness and immediate veterinary attention if needed.
About: Hi there! I’ve had the joy of caring for my mom’s and friends’ dogs over the years, and I was also a proud dog mom myself for over a decade. My sweet girl passed away last September, and while I’m not quite ready to bring another pup into my life full-time, I truly miss the companionship and would love the chance to care for your dog while you’re away. I have experience with senior dogs and pups who need special medical attention, including administering medication and monitoring health conditions like seizures. I understand how important it is to provide patient, attentive care—especially when a dog has unique needs. Whether your dog loves long walks or just relaxing on the couch, I’m happy to meet them right where they are. I’d be honored to give your pup the love, attention, and comfort they deserve in your absence. I work from home and occasionally out in the field, but I'm never gone for more than a few hours—and I can adjust my schedule to be home the entire time if needed. Outside of work, I am a homebody, so you never have to worry about your dog being alone at night. While I do not have a fenced yard, I have a small courtyard and live in a residential neighborhood, which is excellent for walking. Inside my home, your dog is free to go wherever they like. No place is off limits (I am used to having a sliver of the bed).
About: I have one dog and one cat that tend to stay upstairs. I absolutely love animals, So I hope to have my own little hobby farm one day. If your pet is in my home, please know they’ll always feel loved, safe and most likely tired out from all out walks. I believe humans and animals benefit from exercise which helps with behavior, same for humans. So bring your pup to me, and they’ll be tired for you:) Also, I have a special place in my heart for special-needs animals that need a little extra love and patience. I have been doing dog-watching for the past four years, in addition to working part-time for 10 years. I work at a school right down the road, which is perfect for dog watching. I leave at 7am, and I’m back by 11am each day. I do boarding, play dates, pickups, drop-ins, and trips to the dog park. I have a fenced-in yard, so your dog may play, run, or simply get some fresh air. I spend my time walking dogs, feeding them, playing, cuddling, kisses, relaxing on the porch and constantly opening and closing the door so they can go outside. Ha! It’s my life, and I truly love it.

About: I have a soft spot for older dogs and the extra patience they deserve. Senior pets need a slower pace and someone who really pays attention — and that's exactly what I provide. On the other hand, I absolutely love a young, energetic dog who keeps me on my toes too! I grew up with Chihuahuas and have regularly babysat my family's dogs over the years, so while I may not have a dog of my own right now, pets have always been a big part of my life. I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I work remotely so I am avaliable anytime to fufill your dog's need's house sitting or drop ins! Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine — I work from home, so I'm around all day and can give your dog constant attention and companionship. I live in a two-story house with my partner and have a backyard, perfect for some outdoor time. We're also just a block from the lake, so adventurous pups will love the walks! I'm available for sitting pretty much anytime, making it easy to accommodate your schedule. Please note the backyard is not fenced, so leashed outdoor time is always practiced for safety. When a pet is in my care, they're treated like a true member of the family. Since I work from home, I'm available all day to make sure they're never left alone for long. I love getting outside, so expect plenty of walks and adventures — we're a block from the lake, so there's always somewhere fun to explore! For boarding, pets sleep in their own bed or crate so they have a comfortable, familiar space to wind down. I always follow the pet owner's routines and instructions as closely as possible, whether I'm caring for your dog in my home or yours. Your pet's comfort, safety, and happiness is always my top priority.

“Kailey is amazing! She leaves great notes on her visit and amazing pictures. I am soo grateful for her and she has my 100% recommendation!! My pup Legs is my everything and I feel great knowing he is in her care.”

“Cayla is an amazing dog caretaker! She has a genuine love for animals, and it is apparent in her interactions with them. My dog is my baby, there is not many people besides my family and closest friends I trust with him, but Cayla is someone I can say I truly trust to take the best care of my pup! She makes each animal feel loved and special. I would very highly recommend Cayla!”


About: I have cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments throughout my whole life. I have some experience assisting pets recovering from surgery, that require specific/scheduled care, and those who are physically healthy, but perhaps are just very slow to trust. I am more than happy to meet your pet where they are, and to assist with their needs as much as you are comfortable. Due to seasonal lay-offs at my workplace, I am currently available all throughout the day. I am happy to make trips throughout the day if needed, and/or multiple days throughout the week. I take my dog for regular walks, and am happy to do the same for yours. I also do my best to present a calm and controlled energy with animals, in an attempt to let them grow more comfortable with me at their own pace. I am prepared to be patient if your pets are more shy, and playful if they are more energetic and friendly. Every dog and cat is different, and I do my best to match their energy and respect their boundaries, while ensuring I am also meeting their needs.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 13 years old. Big, medium, and small. I’ve taken care of it all. It’s great. I’m currently working a full time job, but I work close enough to my home that I come home for lunch. So I like to take my dog out too and play for a little bit. 🥰🥰🥰 I have a semi fenced yard. Spacious for the dog to run and do it’s business. Spacious house for the dog to be comfortable ❤️
About: Hiya! I'm Rebecca and I was in school to become a vet tech, but now I'm going to school to be a mortician and I'm a tattoo apprentice. I live in Kenosha, which is 15 minutes from the beach and I live around the boarder of Illinois too!! I'm an animal lover I have two dogs at home, an 8-year old westie and a corgi/heeler mix puppy. I have experience with both puppies and senior dogs! My friends have cats that I care for when needed. I have also taken care of horses, reptiles, rodents, and birds as well! My availability is pretty open right now, but I do have dungeons and dragons on Sundays, Friday and Monday nights. So I wouldn't mind if you needed me to do pop-in visit or walks! I can hold a small conversation in ASL! :) I cannot wait to meet you and your fur babies in the future!! :) I have dungeons and dragons on Sundays from 12pm - 5pm, Mondays from 6-9:30pm (online), and Fridays from 6-9:30pm so taking care of your fur baby will not be a problem if they can be left alone for a few hours. Otherwise, I'm available at anytime! I'm very flexible, so if you need an someone to do an emergency sitting for awhile, I'd be more than happy to look after your fur babies during that time! I treat your companions like my own pups, spoiled and treated like queens or kings. I will go to your house and stay there for the sitting including overnights. However, if you do not let your fur baby on furniture, I will respect and follow the house rules. I can take your fur baby for a walk, or we can go to the dog park if you're okay with that! If your furbaby needs medication or fluids, I would prefer to show me how you do it at home, so they can be the most comfortable when I have to give them their medication when you're away. I may a have a friend come by, but I will always ask first. I promise you that there will be no wild parties in your home!
About: I raised a Siberian Husky and a St. Bernard/ Shepard for about 5 years until I separated. I have I have had experiences with friendly giants like Great Dane and Mastiffs all the way down to littles like Frechies and also cats. I’ve also have experience working in a doggy daycares, overnight boarding daycares and an Emergency Vet Hospital. I’ve had hands on and off training from dog trainers while working. I currently live in Mount Pleasant. My daughter is 13 years old, also a gentle giant herself. She has a lot of experience with specifically dogs of large and medium sized. She is looking to make some extra money so she can go to Disney World with her choir group at the end of the year! If you and your pets are comfortable with my daughter assisting with walks and cares, you would be a big part of her milestone with her first job! If this isn’t something you’re comfortable with, that is still okay! I will come alone with the extra care and love I promised! Pet care fits into my schedule for mornings and nights. I work a 3-8pm schedule right now. Summer will change to 6am-11am. It also fits because my daughter loves the animals she cares for and she’s good at it, of course with supervision:) I love to spend my time with pets and my 12 year old daughter as she says “can we get a dog”, this would be a heart start for her! My pets weren’t really on a schedule. They were free fed because they are picky and spoiled. We went for walks whether it’s a short walk or a 35 min walk around the neighborhood because I did have high energy dogs. I do not have a fenced in yard so we do have a leash. They would get bathed about twice a month in my own home. Unfortunately, my husky had passed away so we are down to one.
About: I have taken care of cats, dogs, guinea pigs, chinchillas throughout several years. I have a passion for care taking all kinds of animals from all ages. I am very patient and have experience with things such as administering medications. I also am very attentive to details and flexible with any kinds of needs your pet may have! I recently completed graduate school as a PA and recently moved to the Kenosha area. I currently have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am generally free and available most days of the week and I can be flexible! I live in a safe friendly neighborhood with plenty of areas to walk dogs and play outside. I have no pets at home currently, I do have a small yard.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Sylvania. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Sylvania.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have.

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Sylvania. On Rover:
- 93% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
